Beat Grid Issue with Beatport Link and Rekordbox 6.1

Hi. Every single track that I import from Beatport Link has beatgrid issues after analysis. Sometimes this occurs within the first bar, and sometimes the grid is off at multiple random locations within a song. This also seems to occur randomly when I load the track, even if its locked. I'll fix the grid, which is a major pain because I have to adjust at 4-5 places within the song - then when I reload it, those fixes will sometimes be off again. I've seen posts about this same issue from a year or so ago....is there any fix for this? It's making using LINK very very difficult.

I should mention - I'm using "normal" analysis mode, and not dynamic. I've tried multiple BPM ranges to see if this had anything to do with the problem, and it doesn't. I've also tried dynamic mode, and that doesn't help either. Standard 4/4 electronic music.

I've also logged out Beatport, closed RB, and restarted the PC. Issue persists.

This is a known issue with Windows 11; our engineers are working to resolve this in a future update of rekordbox. Thanks for your patience.

Are there specific songs you could name for us to test and verify?

Yea, first -- here's the workflow I'm using. 1) Create playlist on beatport; (2) Load playlist in RB under the "Beatport" section (3) Import Playlist into my playlists in RB. (4) Analyze all tracks: normal mode (70 to 180), key and phrase.

Here's some tracks:

Artist: NonCitizens; Track: Lost Trumpet in Space (Original Mix).

Artist: Mario Grimaldi; Track: La Cantadora (Original Mix)

Artist: Tiago Brito; Track: The Realm (Original Mix)

Artist: Jerro; Track: Lake Nivu (Original Mix)

Artist: Jerro, Fractures; Track: Leave Me Here feat Fractures (Original Mix)

Some of those tracks are "off" a few bars in, some are off after 16 bars, some are off in the outro. Most have multiple sections that are not correct.

Any updates?

Bumping for an update.....still having the issue. Today I beat grid edited a track, locked it, and then RB appeared to lag and the beat grid was off again.

I'm running Windows 11 - is this part of the issue? Is there potentially some other bug?
